Lavender Teatime presents: Eating Garlic Bread in the Park!

What better way to end the summer than sharing an ultimate comfort food with good company and conversation? Inspired by the online trend of "gays eating garlic bread in the park" that started in Seattle, our Lavender Teatime group will be hosting a drop-in event at Haultain Park to have some garlic bread together!

We will provide the garlic bread, just bring yourselves! Gluten-free and dairy-free garlic bread will be available. You're welcome to bring your own snacks and drinks as well.

As this is a free drop-in event, no registration or RSVP is required. We will be meeting by the tables and benches by the little building. If it's raining, we will meet inside the 1st Street Market next to the park (1327 1 St SW). Keep an eye out for our sign!

We recommend that folks bring anything you need to be outside (sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, bug spray, a jacket, etc). We also recommend bringing a blanket or chair to sit on if you don't want to sit directly on the grass. There are tables and benches as well.

This event is part of our Lavender Teatime pilot structure where we host a monthly special event in addition to our two other regular monthly meetings!
Lavender Teatime is a community group for those whose identities are informed and understood in relation to experiences of queer womanhood, including trans, non binary, and cis folks as they feel comfortable in this space. Read more here.

Please note that this group is mostly attended by and is a space intended for adults. Older youth are welcome to attend if they feel comfortable, however we do offer youth-specific programming as well.

Accessibility and Public Health & Safety:

We will be sitting in the grass and/or at the tables at the park together. You're welcome to bring a blanket or chair to sit on. If it rains, we will move inside nearby.

Please refrain from wearing strongly scented fragrances, as some folks may have sensitivities.
Wearing a mask is encouraged and welcome in all of our spaces. If you have any cold, flu, or Covid symptoms (cough, runny nose, fever, sore throat, etc), we ask that you please do not attend.

If you have any questions about the event, please reach out to Zak, the Manager of Volunteers and Programming, at [zak@calgaryoutlink.ca](mailto:zak@calgaryoutlink.ca).
